Katie Kane was given the all clear from skin cancer in moving scenes on tonight's The Real Housewives of Cheshire.
An overjoyed Katie, who has regularly appeared on the ITVBe reality show with her identical twin sister Rachel Lugo, was told the surgery to remove a cancerous tumor that started a small red mark on her face had been successful.
She was told the tumor had been removed in the first attempt without spreading and the re-occurrence rate in that area only two per cent.
Fabulous Fi tweeted: "I’m so happy for Katie and pleased they got all of cancer removed. #blessher."
Another fan said: "I'm so happy for Katie. @rachellugo5 is an amazing sister and friend."
Guest star Katie and series regular Rachel have thanked fans for their messages of support after she revealed her skin cancer battle on the show which follows the lives of the wealthy and famous living in Cheshire.
Earlier in the series she was seen in tears as she revealed to property entrepreneur Dawn Ward that her skin cancer had returned.
And she was praised for bravely showing how her skin cancer first started as a small mark on her face to raise awareness and try and help others.
Katie, who lives in Gibraltar, has charted her skin cancer journey on Instagram and urged followers to be skin safe in the sun and check any suspicious skin marks and moles with a doctor.
The sisters also appeared on the ITV1 panel show Loose Women together to open up about Katie’s health battles.
The skin cancer awareness campaigner told panelists Coleen Nolan, Janet Street-Porter, Linda Robson and Stacey Solomon that she had basal-cell carcinoma, the most common type of skin cancer, on her chest 11 years ago and it had returned on her face as a small red mark that wouldn’t heal.
